| Message | Mr. Speaker, we have urged NGPoL to form a Cabinet as soon as possible, but this is unacceptable. We are willing to accept the idea of this proposal, we are willing to accept the loss of 2 Cabinets, but we cannot accept that a party without any representative in the Presidium gets 3 Departments. The people of Lodamun do not accept that, we do not accept that. Erika Walem LNC chairman Minister of Education and Culture |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The Social Democratic Alliance is not in the Presidium. -- Linton Jager, Chairman of the GNRG, Minister of Trade/Industry, Vice President of 2GDR Lodamun |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The LNC and the GNRG have a point. We thought we would give the SDA a chance since they are a party within Lodamun and that they were active in some legislation before the March 2334 elections, though not active enough to attract the voter's attention, judging by the results. In hindsight, it probably wouldn't make sense to have a party without seats in the cabinet and the people of our nation wouldn't look on that favorably. Based on this, our party will switch our votes to No for this cabinet and we will support the cabinet the LNC proposed. We encourage the SDA to vote on and/or propose more legislation going forward so the people can see their views and vote accordingly so they can have a better chance to gain seats in the next election. Perhaps we can re-propose this cabinet once they gain seats or they or any other party can propose a cabinet of their own in the future afterwards. Rain Baxtor, Chairman of the NGPoL |

| Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
